10. The effect of uniaxial orientation upon the structural properties of polvaniline films

Abstract

The effects of elongation upon the structural and electronic properties of the conducting polymer polyaniline have been investigated. In particular, the properties of high molecular weight (ca. 150 000 Daltons) polyaniline have been examined, and the effects of increased molecular weight assessed. A method has been found to elongate the emeraldine base (EB) form up to 700% (l/l(_o)=8). This induces partial molecular alignment in the polymer which, upon doping, exhibits electrical conductivity of up to 700 Scm(_-1) and electrical anisotropy of almost 4.The mechanical properties of high molecular weight emeraldine base have been investigated as a function of elongation. The breaking stress has been observed to increase by almost one order of magnitude for a 500% elongated film compared with its unoriented counterpart. The breaking strain is found to decrease initially with increasing elongation, though no noticeable change is evident for samples elongated to more than 300%. Similarly, Young's modulus increases by a factor of 2 with increased elongation, but above 300% remains approximately constant. The behaviour has been interpreted in terms of the crystalline fraction of the samples. X-ray diffraction experiments have enabled the crystalline fraction of emeraldine base and emeraldine salt (ES) to be assessed. 300% elongated EB samples exhibit increased crystalhnity compared with as-cast samples. However, no further increase in crystallmity is evident for 600% elongated samples. Unoriented ES samples have a crystalline fraction of approximately 0.3. The crystallinity of 300% and 600% elongated ES samples is slightly less than for unoriented ES. The polarised reflectance spectra of EB and ES have been measured in the region 0.5- 5.6 eV. The results show increased optical anisotropy with increasing elongation for EB samples, but no change in anisotropy for ES samples above 300% elongation. A Kramers-Kronig analysis of the reflectance data reveals near metallic behaviour parallel to the dkection of elongation, and a high degree of localisation perpendicular to this direction.

28. Analytical device for test fluids, comprises a conductive polymer composition

Author

Hands, Philip J.W., Bloor, David, Laughlin, Paul J., and Lussey, David

Abstract

A sensor for chemical species or biological species or radiation presenting to test fluid a polymer composition comprises polymer and conductive filler metal, alloy or reduced metal oxide and having a first level of electrical conductance when quiescent and being convertible to a second level of conductance by change of stress applied by stretching or compression or electric field, in which the polymer composition is characterised by at least one of the features in the form of particles at least 90% w/w held on a 100 mesh sieve; and/or comprising a permeable body extending across a channel of fluid flow; and/or affording in-and-out diffusion of test fluid and/or mechanically coupled to a workpiece of polymer swellable by a constituent of test fluid.

Abstract

The article focuses on the importance of armored and reconnaissance forces in the U.S. Army. In February 25, 2011, former U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said there will always be a need for heavy armor and firepower to survive, which is something veterans of Sadr City and Fallujah can no doubt attest. Combined-arms requires armored forces to offer protective and devastating cover fire, which is the reason military men should remain experts in their profession and be mindful of history.

Abstract

The article offers suggestions to help shape the debate regarding the outlook for reconnaissance and security operations. According to the article, the requirement to conduct both reconnaissance and security belongs in all organizations such as infantry, armored brigade combat team and the echelons above the brigade level. Outcomes from this interaction should address the doctrine, training and leadership considerations the Army should take in order to get the future of reconnaissance right.

Abstract

The author discusses the contribution of Armor and Cavalry leaders in unifying land operations in the past that can help in shaping the future of the U.S. Army. He agrees that Armor and Cavalry contributed to land operations including provision of versatile forces, keeping quality troopers and soldiers in the force and continuing the improvement of platforms and systems. Also discussed is the proposal of hosting a dialogue about the future role of the U.S. Army in the battlefield.
